Inserting process arguments to Java tasks

[robertwilson]

The userguide isn't very useful when it comes to using variables.. I have a Java task like this:

public class JavaTask {
public boolean getSuccess(String tasksuccess) {
System.out.println(task);
return tasksuccess.equals("true");
}
}

And I call it in the jpdl like this:






However, when the sysout is called, it prints #{tasksuccess}. Using a DecisionHandler earlier on I can access the process variables and confirm that 'tasksuccess' does exist, so why is it not being inserted properly here?

Cheers,

Robert

The JPDL was removed..

<java name="get success" class="play.JavaTask" method="getSuccess" var="success" >
 <arg>< string value="#{tasksuccess}"/></arg>
 <transition to="end1"/>
</java>

You should be using expression attribute instead if you want it to be evaluated

 <java name="get success" class="play.JavaTask" method="getSuccess" var="success" >
 <arg><object expr="#{tasksuccess}"/></arg>
 <transition to="end1"/>
 </java>

Ahh, ok. A little counter-intuitive, but it works.

I tried

<string expr="#{var}"/>

, but that didn't work.
